Chapter 129 The Dean's Criteria for Choosing a Spouse
In a forest on the outskirts of Youlong City.
"The headquarters of the Academy of Sciences is underground. Before the third level, we had to take the elevator to go to the headquarters, but now we don't need to." As she spoke, Zhao Yuxi grabbed Xu Yingze's arm, and the two of them dispersed in the environment.
The intermixing of elements is a novel and even bizarre experience. What comes into view is the boundless aurora. The aurora covers the sky and the land. When people's eyes wander in the aurora, what they see is like the abyss and deep space dyed with color.
The headquarters of the Academy of Sciences is 500 meters underground. Zhao Yuxi's speed is one thousand meters per second, so she can arrive there in half a second.
After the aurora dissipated, Xu Ying saw the blue sky and white clouds: "What is this?"
"The ability that all third-order asymptotes have is the ability to dissolve elements. Let's go, this is the so-called Academy of Sciences headquarters."
Xu Ying thought of the training base built in the mountains, which was also the competition area of the second modeling competition. It was a building shaped like a tower, and the walls of the tower could block the asymptote. At that time, she wondered where the contestants of the innovation and entrepreneurship competition were and what they did. Now that she arrived at the Academy of Sciences, it was late on the ground, but the sky was bright underground. This was too incredible, but also reasonable.
White clouds floated in the sky, the sky was blue, there was no sun, but there was light. The tall buildings, the trees and the grass were connected together, and at first glance, they looked very similar to the scenery on the ground.
"Is there anything I should be careful of when meeting someone from the Academy of Sciences?"
Zhao Yuxi said, "I don't think so. The ancients are not bound by these trivial matters. Although you are not an ancient, you are not much different. Let's go meet my good friend first. It will be more convenient to get things from her."
Xu Ying asked her, "Can we enter and leave the Academy of Sciences as we please?"
"No. Because of it, we can come in. Otherwise, we will be blocked by the barrier." Zhao Yuxi took out the colorful musical note seal, "It was made by Zhou Xutong himself, symbolizing the identity of the dean of the branch. You will have one soon. I won't take you with me in the Academy of Sciences. The elements will not dissolve together, which is easy to cause malfunctions. Let's go over there."
There are too many ancients gathered in the headquarters of the Academy of Sciences, and multiple third-order powers are intertwined. In this case, the use of elements to dissolve each other may be disturbed and cause quality loss. If the quality loss is too much, it may be difficult to recover.
"What do people in the Academy of Sciences usually do?"
Zhao Yuxi had carefully read the scientific research projects of the Academy of Sciences. She told Xu Yingze about this matter in the most popular way: "Uncertain. Their projects are extremely dependent on the properties of the asymptotes themselves. To me, they seem to be taking chances. If they find a good line today, a new project will appear today. If they can't find a suitable line, the relevant projects will be abandoned."
If there are enough people, trying your luck is a good idea. Xu Ying asked, "How many people are there in the Academy of Sciences?"
"The Academy of Sciences has a headquarters and three branches. The headquarters has about 20 people, and the three branches have 10 people each, for a total of 50 people. This is the number of regular employees. The total number of people will be doubled. Are you interested in the Academy of Sciences? Would you like to come here to work part-time?"
"part time?"
"Just come here once a month to sign in and collect some information. If you are too busy, you can ask your subordinates to do it for you. Level 15 professor, monthly salary 3, part-time level professor, monthly salary , do you want it?"
"Does it fit?"
"Of course it's appropriate. The Research Institute and the Academy of Sciences are originally together. I am a part-time second-level professor here, with a monthly salary of 8 yuan."
Working part-time at the Academy of Sciences helped her make friends, and she occasionally worked with her friends to get closer and deepen their understanding.
"No, thank you." Xu Ying thought that she didn't need to take risks for the monthly salary of 8.4 yuan: My current position is a first-level station manager with a monthly salary of 30 yuan. After I am promoted to the dean of the third-level branch, my monthly salary will be 34 to yuan. There will be little difference between having the yuan from the Academy of Sciences or not.
"I'll give you a copy after I get the information. Adjunct professors don't have the power to lead projects, but they can still observe. Just tell me what information you need. There's one thing you might be interested in. The core members of the institute can get diplomas and degrees from any university by studying and furthering their studies at the Academy of Sciences. Do you want one?" Xu Ying secretly thought that the Academy of Sciences also had great power and could change secular rules at will. Status, money, and education were all readily available here.
"I haven't graduated from high school yet, so I don't need it for now. The arrangement of the institute is really thoughtful, taking both my studies and career into consideration."
"Let me think, besides study and career, what else do people often talk about? Oh, yes, starting a family. Do you have any plans to start a family?"
Xu Ying didn't want to answer this question. It seemed a bit disadvantageous to tell the dean of the branch about this matter. After thinking about it, she "returned the question in its original form": "Dean Zhao, do you plan to start a family?"
"When my career is more stable, I might find an Ancient One to be with. Don't think too much, the Ancient One I want to find is not Gu Tingzhou. He is my partner, but I don't like his personality."
For the past two months, Zhao Yuxi has been looking for a suitable candidate.
There are quite a few ancient people in the country. If the Star Lords are included, the number of ancient people exceeds four hundred. However, the Star Lords are unkind and cannot be considered as mate candidates.
Narrowing the scope to the Research Institute and the Academy of Sciences, these two institutions together have nearly a hundred Ancients. The Dean and the Vice Dean were not considered as mates because of their ranks. In addition, people of the same sex, people of different ages, people who were not spokespersons, and Gu Tingzhou were not allowed to be selected. In the end, only about ten people were left.
Picking out a person with suitable personality and ability from these people is not a large workload, but it is quite difficult, the success rate is not high, and there are many unexpected situations.
When Xu Ying heard the words "Gu Tingzhou", her eyes widened a little: The person you specifically mentioned actually already has a place in your heart. "Yes" or "no", I'm afraid it's still undecided.
Xu Ying was wondering whether she should remind her: If she wanted to remind her, where should she start?
Seeing that she was still silent, Zhao Yuxi knew that she didn't want to answer, so she took the initiative to answer for her: "I almost forgot that our Station Master Xu is a very young girl. It's too early for her to start a family and a career now."
Xu Ying said jokingly, "Not necessarily, Dean. Have you ever liked someone when you were my age?"
"Perhaps, but they are neither the Ancients nor the Medieval ones."
"Yes, asymptotes and asymptotic rates are both very important and cannot be ignored. In the past, we didn't have asymptotes and asymptotic rates, so we didn't consider them. Now that we have them, we have to consider them. But, I wonder if the dean still remembers how he felt when he liked someone in the past?"
Xu Ying does not really think that “asymptotes and asymptotic rates are important”, but given her situation, she cannot say “asymptotes and asymptotic rates are not important” because she really has them and has benefited a lot from them.
The first three sentences were all foreshadowing. In the fourth sentence, Xu Ying wanted to tell her: As long as Gu Tingzhou is not too bad, when you experience this feeling from him again, you will accurately know the cause and name of this feeling.
Zhao Yuxi had a very bad impression of Gu Tingzhou. She didn't understand the hidden meaning of Xu Yingze's words and simply replied with two words.
"remember."
Xu Ying gave her some hints: "When you are young, you don't need to dress up deliberately. Just sit or stand attentively, or do anything you like, or stare at the scenery in the distance, and you will be beautiful and attractive enough."
Zhao Yuxi seemed to understand what he said: "Yes, if I could go back to my youth, I would..."
Xu Ying knew that Zhao Yuxi didn't understand, but she didn't want to give any more hints: some things had to wait for Zhao Yuxi to discover them herself, and too many hints might have a negative effect. When we were young, we dressed up to decorate our appearance. Aren't the asymptotes and asymptotic rates at this time also "dressing up"?
She looked at the chair opposite, at the tree and pond next to her, walked along the path in the lawn, and along the concrete road in the distance... During this process, she was quietly listening to Zhao Yuxi's beautiful recollection of the past.
